while reading the manga I thought just what will the producers come up with in the voice-changing part :D It'd have been interesting to hear Sasaki-san imitate a girl but naw...


Haha, I thought that too, when I finished this chapter in the manga...
but really, I guess this is the one scene in the series that is totally impossible in real life, no man could totally pretend to be a woman without years of trainning and body modifications...
90% of Anime is shit, but then, 90% of everything is shit.

The twist was "HOLY SHIT" and all, but this is my least favorite episode so far. Johan pretending to be Nina is just totally implausible, unless suk is blind or something. The twist just wasn't believable whatsoever.

The problem I had with the episode is that Monster relies on gritty realism to be effective. In Code Geass for example, this episode would have been fine, because the whole show was absurd. But Monster having an absurd episode cheapens the show a lot.

Now I know why Johan's such a bizarre guy he's got the body of a woman! I think it's not implausible for him to pull off a female if he were to do so in real life. I've seen guys who look like toothpicks almost like me. And I actually find it to be oddly cute because it seems kind of rare.

"What the ??" This ep is the best epic twist in the show...

I never thought that Johan was crossdressing as Nina..

Pure genius!!

I don't really consider this a twist. Had it been Anna giving candies all along then maybe.


Johann's got one girly voice on him.

Yeah I wonder how he pulled off the chest and legs of Anna too, but I'm wondering more about why he let the guy with all the info on him and 511 kinderheim just walk away

This would have been a great twist if some bastard hadn't ruined it for me in the forums a couple of episodes back.

Holy shit, I should've seen it coming when the "blonde woman" first made her appearance a couple of episodes ago. Thought it was pretty impossible for a twist like that to occur, even with the poisoned candy and with Anna calling herself "Anna Liebert" since she usually uses "Nina Fortner", but I thought wrong.

Funny how Johan's shoulders immediately became smaller while cross-dressed.


Maybe it was his coat that gave him broad shoulders.... Overall, good episode with a crazy ending. I thought Nina became like Johan but I guess I was pretty close! But if Suk and Johan did kiss as Nina, I would have a major nosebleed.

Someone totally spoiled the twist in an earlier episode post so I am dissapoint...douche

Johan's body completely changed while cross dressing... creep status

Also the hell with the detective just spilling his guts like that...why are people so damn naive in this show...it bothers me!!! Like "Hey pretty woman I don't know anything about, let me just tell you everything of very secret and delicate police matters THAT I WAS TOLD TO KEEP QUIET!!!" THE HELL!!!

IT'S A TRAP!

At least now we know Nina is not a killer. I feel kinda stupid. I had 3 or 4 theories (mother, another sibling, Nina with double personality, impostor) but never that Johan was impersonating her. Must have small shoulders then!

And lost in that finale is the fact that Grimmer could actually be somehow related to the experiments, since he seems to have a Jekyll and Hyde personality.
"Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question. But that's beyond the reach of these small hands." Mamoru Oshii

ahh poor Honza (Suk, Jan) i don't know whats worse, that he fell in love with man or that he is being played with by our charismatic Johann.

And yeah neither i had idea it was Johan. I though their mom was involved then i got confused how young she appeared to be, then i though maybe the one in bar was Anna but killer was someone who looks like her. Even brainwashing seemed more probable. But i would have never though that Johan was able to transform himself into female this perfectly. Voice was authentic, body shape was unbelievable for cross dressing man and everything was screaming "IM FEMALE FFS! "

(btw Johan is Germen variation of czech name "Jan" and reason behind informal alternative "Honza" for name Jan : Johan = Johanes > Hans > Czech infromal Honza = formal Jan, Not many ppl use "Jan" in verbal communication , almost everyone use "Honza" )

Haha, oh, my, WHAT A TWIST! No wonder this is the 2nd largest Monster discussion thread.

Thinking about it, something like this could have been expected, since Anna/Nina wouldn't kill the police dudes just like that. I thought she took a level in badass off screen, but thisi is SO much better.

Only letdown in retrospect: Johan didn't let Suk kiss him, lol
